Temporary changes

Beeston Bump

The Trails team will be carrying out work from 19 February to 29 March to improve access around Beeston Bump. Please follow the diversions put in place during this time. Thank you for your cooperation while we improve your Norfolk Coast Path.

Cromer to Overstrand

A section of the Coast Path between Cromer and Overstrand is only accessible at low tide, following a recent cliff fall. Please check tide times if you're planning to walk this section of the route.

Trunch Circular Walk

Trunch Footpath 6 is temporarily closed and an alternative route provided (see temporary diversion map below). A tree has fallen across the footbridge rendering it unusable and unstable. There is a plan to replace the bridge, however, in the interim period, the path will be diverted until further notice.

Tidal Surge - Impact on Norfolk Coast Path

Following the recent tidal surge the national trail has been affected in a number of places. The National Trails team are working with other agencies to repair the route where there has been significant erosion.

When walking the national trail please take particular care in the Walcott / Ostend area where there has been scouring caused by the tidal surge. We will be realigning the coastal access at Happisburgh following a cliff fall and new signage will be installed to provide clear instructions for members of the public using the route.

Bacton

Due to unsafe steps leading to the beach at Bacton, the Norfolk Coast Path follows the England Coast Path alternative route along the beach to the sea wall at Cable Gap Holiday Park.
